Tbh I'm surprised there isn't a band called As You Were in that thread

Give it a year or two, there probably will be.

But I'm on the Guest List is A+

plus aspects of the 70s lasted through the first couple years of the 80s

haha these are great

yeah i've never had a problem with these extending way past the 70s, though it helps when it's an act that plausibly had been saving up this title since that time. the 70s is a ~feeling~ with these cats.

and yeah "But, I'm On The Guest List" is incredible

wrt to snatch that totally doesn't have the shruggy, just a regular joe kinda irony that is the key to these.

like a i've got my own album to do title CAN be a pun, but being a pun doesn't necessarily make it one if that makes sense

i know everyone says this like once a month, but it really is amazing how the examples never end

I anticipate this thread lasting a 12 years, just like the 70s did

Hoodoo Rhythm Devils, "All Kidding Aside"

Bill Teeters (Tom D.), Friday, 24 March 2017 18:52 (seven years ago) link

I feel like that is kind of a lazy one for this thread, like the actual cover should be the band pushing a group of children to one side of the frame or some such thing.

'hoodoo rhythm devils' is like the tgi fridays of band names

excellent

niels, Saturday, 8 April 2017 07:11 (seven years ago) link

I've looked at that Hoodoo Rhythm Devils many times in used bins, never realized it was titled The Barbecue of Deville. Ouch.

Came across this one, 'The Great Fatsby' by Leslie West this weekend.

Back cover shot is pretty 'pub band'.

Tracklist is particularly on-the-nose for this kind of band.

Maybe posted before, but:

Focus - Hamburger Concerto (1974)

I came upon their record In And Out Of Focus (also known as Focus Plays Focus) but could tell if it fit on this thread or on the punning album titles thread. Was disappointed that the photo wasn't making more use of being in and out of focus.

Yeah that's right on the border with 60s-style lame puns that feel like they were picked by the label.
